BlackBerry Storm2 9550
Open Question for Storm Experts.
Currently have iPhone 3GS. For a few different reasons considering switch to Verizon. Love iPhone but not thrilled with Droid or Eris. Honestly think BB would make me more productive, plus it seems like everyone I know communicates on BBM! I have played with both the Storm2 and the Tour. Coming from iPhone, I do prefer the size of the screen on Storm2. So, a few questions:
Can I synch to my GMail calendar?
How's the camera? I frequently use iPhone to shoot (small) videos of my kids.
How is browsing picture files? iPhone is super easy for managing pics and such. I never carry photos of the family around now. Just have the phone.
If I chose, can I load movies (from DVDs I own?) to the Storm2 for flights, long-trips, etc.?...

Come over to the dark side. You'll love it; you'll love the coverage; you'll love the Verizon customer service.
To answer your questions:
A. You can sync calendars, contacts, and email using the google sync app.
B. Camera is okay, and you can use it for pics and vids.
C. Good media app for pics, vids, and music. Very easy to use.
D. I load all sorts of vids to kill time when I'm on the road. Again, very easy.
E. You can run both 3G and WiFi at the same time. You won't need WiFi most of the time, although it comes in handy some times. Switch is manual, but very easy.
Hit me with any other questions.
Aloha,
Kimo

Hey, thanks! Funny you mention the Verizon customer service. My experiences with them on the FIOS side and the fact that they offer additional discounts if I add wireless to my package is one of the reasons I'm considering switching. Though certainly not the only one.
Thanks again. As I think of other possible issues, I'll be sure to post.
